Meg and Blue Ferreting

[dougall 98]

you think this because you cannot see the rabbits that have been caught, they catch most of them over the brow of the hill on the flat as you should know, little dogs arent the best uphill

whys that then whippets r small

[dymented 2,220]

don't let them wind you up you don't do it for the numbers just to watch the dog work and have a bit of fun so them

Enjoyable video

 

But i do agree with some of the comments, and they are not necessarily just trying to start an argument or slag you off, but maybe offering advice! Which, you will always get when you stick stuff up on a public forum.

 

With regard to the young lurcher yapping, giving her lots of the same probably won't make her stop doing it, and it does make a difference to catching rabbits. You try running 100/200 meters and then try doing the same 100/200 meters while yelling your head off, and look at the difference in times. It's a lot harder to run while using your lungs for shouting.

 

I'm also not a fan of a ferreting dog staring down the hole, as no rabbit likes bolting into a dogs face, and often the dog will also miss vital seconds getting on a rabbit that bolts out of a different hole.

 

But keep em coming, it's better than anything on t.v
